North Korea has urged South Korea to show its commitment to improving inter-Korean relations through actions rather than words.
 
The Rodong Sinmun, the official newspaper of the North’s ruling Workers’ Party said on Wednesday that Pyongyang has displayed its will to improve relations with Seoul through its words and actions.
 
The paper criticized the South for pretending to be interested in dialogue with the North while being obsessed with promoting confrontation and conducting a joint artillery drill with the United States.
 
The North also claimed that Seoul is ruining the mood for inter-Korean dialogue by provoking the North on its nuclear and human rights issues.
